Best ice cream around. Big portions. Good prices. Homemade ice cream. There are closer ice cream places but this is our favorite and in our option worth the 15 minute drive. Near a Walmart and Flagship movie theater.

This is a beautiful preserve that is accessed from route 90 about 3 minutes from here. The trail is very even and well maintained. Most of the hike is in the woods though there is a portion that goes along farm fields.

Beech Hill preserve is a short hike up a rocky, open road with blueberry bluffs all around you. At the top of the hike, you can see Beech Nut a stone cabin with a sod roof that has been renovated in recent years. The views at the top are of Rockport and Rockland harbors, islands, and the surrounding hills. This is one of our family's favorite hikes.

Legend says that a maiden while part of a maying party chased her hat off the cliff and fell to her death. A huge cross has been erected in her memory. This hike over looks Megunticook lake and Penobscot bay and the Camden hills. You could swim at Barrett's Cove (Megunticook lake) after your hike.

Sightseeing

Penobscot Bay is world famous for its sailing and stunning views of the mountains and the surrounding islands. These are smaller boats and you get more attention and a more personal experience. Captain Aaron is great. Sailing out of Camden harbor.

You can walk out on the breakwater in Rockland harbor and walk around the lighthouse at the end. You need good shoes because it can get wet and you are stepping over gaps between the rocks. Not handicapped accessible. Hard for really young children. It would probably take at least an hour round trip. No cost.
